The situation in the market for plant-based commodities is relatively stable compared to other sectors. This is mainly due to its strong seasonality, which means that most major changes occur in connection with the following harvest.
Some say that the golden era of popularity for plant-based meat substitutes is coming to an end. Nonetheless, their popularity remains high in many regions, especially among young people, as reflected in the demand for the food grade of Vital Wheat Gluten, Hydrolyzed Wheat Gluten and Pea Protein. At the same time, demand for feed commodities is down for the same reason.
Seasonality and a relatively stable situation do not mean that nothing is happening in the market. On the contrary, you can even say that for many products we are just in the phase of waking up from hibernation.
